How does it work?
1. Buyer and Seller Agree to Terms
Both parties agree to terms of the transaction, which include a description of the vehicle, sale price and number of days for the Buyer’s inspection of the vehicle.

2. Buyer Pays Google Checkout
The Buyer submits their payment to Google Checkout. When payment is received, it will be verified and secured into a non-interest bearing trust account.
Google Checkout verifies the payment.

3. Seller Ships the Vehicle
Upon payment verification, the Seller is authorized to ship the vehicle.
Google Checkout verifies that the Buyer receives the vehicle.
The inspection period begins once the vehicle is delivered.

4. Buyer Inspects and Accepts
When the Buyer accepts the vehicle or the inspection period expires (at which point, the Buyer automatically accepts), the disbursement of payment will begin. Please note that Google Checkout may perform additional verification before funds are released.
For more information, read our FAQs.

5. The Seller is Paid by Google Checkout
Google Checkout pays the Seller after all conditions of the transaction are met.
What are the benefits?
Google Checkout reduces the potential risk of fraud by acting as a trusted third party that collects, holds and disburses funds according to Buyer instructions.
We protect both the Buyer and Seller with a simple, 5-step trust process.
The Buyer can inspect the vehicle before the Seller is paid.
The Seller ships the vehicle only if the Buyer’s payment is secured with Google Checkout.

Hi,

I wont be able to reach you on the phone because I have an handicap, (sorry I forgot to mention it) I was born deaf-mute. I'm really sorry for this inconvenience. I can help you by answering to your questions via e-mail.

This car has been completely serviced and inspected. It's stored in a shipping company's warehouse in Virginia (ready for delivery). I've asked them to allow viewers to go there and inspect the car but their reply was: "We are not a showroom!" In this case, I will offer a 7-day period to inspect the car from the moment you receive it, before I'll have your money, you can even take it to an independent mechanic for inspection. The shipping will take 3 to 5 days depending on your location. Being a charity sale you as a buyer you will benefit of substantial tax deductions, including free shipping. The shipping company will call you with one day before arriving to their nearest office from your location. You will have to go there and sign for pick up. You don't have to pay any taxes, duties or so. You will receive the car along with all the documents including title, bill of sale, 2 set of keys, full service records and more. I'm currently on a trip for UNICEF, so I can't conclude this transaction personally but I left everything prepared for the sale. The payment is refundable and will be handled by Google Checkout. If you decide to buy the car please include the following information in your next email so I can open a case with Google Checkout and they will notify you about this transaction. Like this you'll be able to talk directly with them and ask all you want to know.

1. Ship to name and address ( the complete name, address and phone# of the person receiving the car )

2. Motor vehicle registration name and address needed for title transfer, this would be your complete name and physical address ( or if the car is to be registered on someone else's name the name and address of the registrant is needed )

P.S: I'm sorry for the long email but I tried to reach all the points. If I missed something, please do not hesitate to ask me and I will do all my best to explain you again all the process and to answer to all your questions.

from craigslist:Here is the vin # 1HGFA16896L088825If you are interested this is how it works:1. You have to send me your full name and complete address (I need for delivery).2. I'll open a transaction with Google Checkout for you using your delivery details as the buyer of my car. The car is already at the U.S. Army - Military Vehicle Transport Dept sealed and ready to be delivered.3. Google Checkout will send you an invoice for payment and delivery details regarding our transaction.4 You will send the payment to Google Checkout and they will notify me about the status, Military Vehicle Transport Dept will receive the confirmation of the payment and shipping will start to your location.5. After you will receive and inspect/drive the car and decide to keep it, Military Vehicle Transport Dept will inform Google Checkout about that and they will forward me the funds and the deal is done.Basically Google Checkout will secure the funds until you receive and inspect the car. You will have 10 days inspection period. If the car is not like described, it will be shipped back to me on my expense and they will give you a full refund. This way you will be able to inspect the car before committing to buy it and I know that you have the money and you are not just fooling around.You will wire the money to Google Checkout not to me, they will keep the money safe until you will receive the car and send them the confirmation that you want to keep the car just after that they will released the money to me.If you would like to move forward with this deal send me your full name and your complete address (street, city, state, zip code) where you want it sent and we can start the transaction.

Look how it works :1. You have to go with cash at any western union office near you and send the money to google agent (name and address on the google invoice)you have to pay some normal transfer fees also - around 140$.I already explained you how to avoid the extracharges.2. Google agent will receive your money and hold them into a trust account and inform me that you made the payment3. I will start the shipping and the truck will be in front of your door in 2-3 days with all the documents that you need to register the truck to your name4. you test the truck and if everything is OK (and will be because my truck is in perfect condition) you have to inform google to release me the fundsI chose the payment method to be through western union because is the fastest way for me to close this deal . If you want a refund you will have all your money back through western union or by bank account including the western union fees so..let me know if you understand the process and if you want to make the payment today because i have another interested buyerThank you

Hi,The car it's still available for sale. The asking price is $25,000. If your looking for a great vette then this is your car. Always garaged under a car cover and hand washed. Not a scratch on this car, the pictures speak for themselves. I am listing this just under dealer trade value in hopes for a quick easy sale. Car runs and drives great,no tehnical problems (the motor & tranny work perfect), no dents or scratches. Never driven in the snow or rain it was always garaged and the regular maintenance was done in time. It wasn't involved in any accident and has never suffered any kind of damage. Is a non-smoker car.The car is in my garage in San Jose, CA and the VIN is 10867S101301. I've lowered the price because I'm in desperate need of cash it's either the car or the house so if you don't need a loan you can have it…. had a buyer offering $24,000 1 month ago and I've lost about 2 weeks waiting for him to pay just to find out in the end that his loan wasn't approved.
